If you feel the need, than go back. I had the same issue and ended up staying another night due to it. I know how you feel, as I still dry heave. Just try little sips or go back.

I'm glad you are feeling better. My incisions are held closed by glue! No stitches and no staples. I'm sure that is why mine don't hurt as much as many on here. I will post a few photos of my glued incisions so you can see the difference. Feel better! My surgery was Monday and I feel pretty darn good today.

Go back to the hospital is you feel bad, I wanted to go home too but I knew that I needed to be able to survive on my own at home before leaving, hope you feel better wishing you a fast recovery.

I have to say that we are ALL stars!! for going through what we went through, getting the sleeve is not easy and it gets better with each new day but it is not for the weak because you really really need to be strong for yourself.

Was wondering, how many people had hernias that needed to be repairded?

Me. Along with my band scar tissue clean up, my surgery took almost 5 hours! It was supposed to take 1.5 hours! But...thankfully I havent been having the heartburn I was having pre-sleeve! :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
